She keeps four project boxes of different subjects she&#8217;s dreaming of writing about.\u00a0 She says it&#8217;s a good way to cook, too: &#8220;several pots perking on the stove while rolling out the biscuit dough, chopping celery and cleaning out the fridge.&#8221;\u00a0 She says multitasking is &#8220;a nasty word that reminds me of driving down the freeway while polishing your nails and talking on the phone, nothing relating.\u00a0 Instead, I like taking advantage of overlaps in activities that connect.&#8221;\u00a0 So that&#8217;s the kind of overlapping multitasking I&#8217;m doing today.<\/p>\n<p>I often visit Maria Killam\u2019s <a title=\"Color_Me_Happy_blog\" href=\"https:\/\/colourmehappyblog.blogspot.com\/2009\/09\/how-to-shop-for-wallpaper.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Color Me Happy<\/a> blog because, well, it makes me feel happy!\u00a0 Sometimes it gives me inspiration for related projects. \u00a0\u00a0I bookmarked a post from last year and knew I\u2019d use it one day (similar to Frances&#8217; project boxes).\u00a0 It\u2019s all about how to pick the right wallpaper.\u00a0 Maria points out that If you are working with fixed elements in your room you have to first establish what you have to work with, what goes and what has to stay.\u00a0 Next, determine which fixed elements you can ignore and that will narrow your color decision.\u00a0\u00a0 Your wallcovering and paint color should pull your space together.\u00a0 To make this easy, did you know that we can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casartcoverings.com\/shop\/custom-wallpaper\/custom-removable-wallpaper\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">customize our Casart removable wallcovering to your color choices<\/a>?<\/p>\n<p>Since the bathroom in the picture below had pink fixtures and a green-beige counter top, the decision was made to ignore the out-dated pink fixtures.\u00a0 The creme in the selected wallpaper was matched for trim color.<\/p>\n<p>Maria recommends that every woman have a paint chip fan.\u00a0 You can usually get these from a paint store like Benjamin Moore.\u00a0 You will have to hold the paint fan chip beside the color you are trying to match on the wall where it is to achieve a correct match.\u00a0 Once you have determined your paint color, take your fan with you to help select the correct shade of wallpaper.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3486\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3486\" style=\"width: 607px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img

depending on the light source at any given time of day.\u00a0 Because of the intensity of the morning sun streaming in from an eastern expanse of glass, it took three paint samples on two different walls before I got the right shades of yellow in this room.\u00a0 I suggest you view the selected color in the room at different times of day.\u00a0 It may be too bright in the morning, but too dark
